Service Modes
Service Default Mode (SDM) and Service Alignment Mode

There is also the option of using ComPair, a hardware interface
between a computer (see requirements) and the FTV chassis.
It offers the ability of structured trouble shooting, test pattern
generation, error code reading, software version readout and
software upgrading.
Minimum requirements: a Pentium Processor, Windows 9x/NT/
2000/XP, and a CD-ROM drive (see also paragraph 5.4).
